Back to Sicily, where the first stop on our tour was Taormina.
Mt. Etna showed itself briefly at daybreak.

In Italy, it's a stone mason's adhesive. Leica users will understand...

There's a story behind this last picture. Last summer, I attended an
adult music camp. One of the pieces we played in the orchestra was the
overture to an operetta by Camille Saint-Saens called "La Princesse
Jaune" (The Yellow Princess). The story was about a young man who falls
in love with the portrait of a Japanese princess dressed in yellow. In a
dream, he travels to Japan and meets her, but eventually decides that
his sweetheart back home is who he really loves. So when I saw the
young woman, I just had to take her picture. I told her the story, she
thought it was cool, and she posed for me.
Olympus E-M5 and 20/1.7, 25/1.4 or 45/1.8. Enjoy.
